BIRMINGHAM L^!?7^ N^ ne hundred and seventy-five year^^go, Madeline Island in Lake Superior was a commercial center for the western Great Lakes region, undergoing economic, social, and even religious change. Only a few decades earlier, a British flag had flown over its small settlement, and before that it had been one of the centers of the fur trade in New France, the territory claimed by the French that consisted of southeast Canada, the Great Lakes region, and the Mississippi River Valley. But the European demand for furs had waned, and the island's principal business, the American Fur Company, began 1 1 ^hifting to commercial fishing, shipping out hundreds of barrels of fish as well "'' fJ^s packs of fur.' The island settlement, also known as La Pointe, changed loca- i^^'j-^ii^pi^^ion in 1835.

Answering a call for mis­ sionaries in America, he traveled to Cincinnati in 1831 and then spent several years at Indian missions in Michigan. He rapidly learned native languages, publishing a prayer book in the Ottawa language and later developing the first grammar and dictionary for Ojibwe).' The Leopoldine Society (Leopoldinenstiftung), a Vienna organization formed in 1829 to aid American Catholic mis­ sions, supported his work in North American, as did wealthy relatives. The Society was named in honor of Austrian Maria Leopoldina, Empress of Brazil and daughter of Holy Roman Emperor Francis II. Leopold or Leopoldus (1073-1136) is also the name of the patron saint of Austria and Vienna. ** A year after founding the mission, Baraga traveled back to Europe to raise money.
